St. Augustine

Luci here to finish our trip tale.
We headed to Ray's in Jacksonville on Wednesday. The farther we got south, the warmer it was. Billy, the blue beagle, was sure glad to see me and Prissy.
Ray and Maureen had to head to work so they made their clothes extra spiffy - a routine they do every day,
Then they had the day off and we headed for St. Augustine. Even though Ray drove, I still had to navigate. We saw the fort, fountain of youth and walked around the historic downtown.

When the grownups rested, we dogs stayed on guard. Wasn't the sky blue? Friday night Charlene and Aunt E had a margarita at Mo's restaurant and then dinner at Mitchell's. It was delicious as usual. I stayed home with Billy and Prissy and guarded the house.
Saturday we headed to Lakeland to visit Aunt E's friend Ellen. She had hurt her foot and was at the ER when we got there. We stayed Sat and Sun nights and helped her with her dog and food. But I don't think her dog, Duke, wanted us there. He was not too hospitable to us although being me I kept trying to get him interested. He was still grouchy when we left Monday morning headed for Key West. Stay tuned for those stories and pictures.
Charlene says her father would say - "I've raised a foolish family. Animals are for the outside of the house!!!"
